Helix Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 So this is a noob help request, but I need help. I am trying to upload a custom image and it hasn't worked for the past 8 or so tries. I made sure it's under 100x100 pixels and that it's way under 48.8 KB. I checked file name and even renamed it. I can figure out why SFN keeps saying "Invalid File Name"....Does SFN hate me and want me to cry?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ecoli Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 Why don't you try hosting on a file storage site like photobucket or something that, and just use the URL to load your avatar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't think of a reason why the way you first tried to do it didn't work, but w/e. I guess it doesn't matter now. Nice Santa Clause hat, btw.

5614 Posted December 24, 2005 Share Posted December 24, 2005 Maybe because it was a .bmp file it wouldn't let you upload it... last I looked it had to be .jpg or .jpeg or .gif etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helix Posted December 24, 2005 Author Share Posted December 24, 2005 Oh, really? Well then that's probably the reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted December 25, 2005 Share Posted December 25, 2005 Oh well, seems to be sorted now. Didn't have a problem the last time I uploaded avatars - then again, that was about a year ago now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helix Posted December 25, 2005 Author Share Posted December 25, 2005 All's well that ends well -- and just in time for Christmas with my festive killer-virus-in-a-cute-hat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
